2. Deeper (TBA)
Ana de Armas will star alongside Tom Cruise in Doug Liman’s sci-fi horror movie ‘Deeper.’ The story, written by Max Landis and Christopher McQuarrie, follows Eddie Breen, a disgraced and depressed former astronaut who takes up a new job. He has to pilot a one-man sub to the bottom of the deepest and darkest point on Earth, the Ni’hil Trench. Eddie livestreams the dive without expecting anything other than water pressure, darkness, and silence. However, when the sub reaches 4,000 feet, he spots numerous divers dancing in the dark, and it is even confirmed by his crew on the surface. As he dives deeper, things get weirder- he spots a ghostly shipwreck along with the undead who are calling Eddie closer. As he descends further, he sees a manor on the ocean floor and a legendary French explorer named Marion, who was long presumed lost. She believes she is still alive and even helps Eddie fix his sub. Together, they come to the surface, and while Eddie feels that the mission is a triumph, he is shaken to his core. The Warner Bros. project is in its scripting stage, and more details are eagerly awaited.
